Huntington’s Disease Association West Midlands branch

The Huntington’s Disease Association West Midlands branch is run by volunteers to provide emotional and practical support to anyone affected by Huntington’s disease in the local area.

We have been offering support and advice for over 40 years to local people affected by Huntington’s disease. We have regular support meetings which are very informal and welcoming. The meeting offers the opportunity where people can share tips and ideas of how to deal with issues, they may be facing with their loved ones in a safe kind environment. We welcome the local Specialist Huntington’s Disease Adviser to our meetings.
